  • Title: [Acute epididymitis in children].
    Author: Granados E, Caicedo P, Garat JM.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1993; 46(6):481-3. PubMed ID: 8379698.
    Abstract:
    The present study reports our experience with epididymitis in 18 boys aged 3-16 years. The diagnosis was made at surgical exploration in 12 patients under 10 years. In the remaining 6 patients over 11 years, the diagnosis was made on the clinical and scrotal ultrasound findings. All patients were treated with analgesics, ice bags, scrotal support and antibiotics. Children that consult for scrotal pain should undergo surgical exploration within 6 hours from the onset of pain if imaging by echo Doppler or technetium pernectate is unavailable.
